Cheaper by the Dozen

Filmed in 1950. "'Cheaper By the Dozen', based on the real-life story of the Gilbreth family, follows them from Providence, Rhode Island, to Montclair, New Jersey, and details the amusing anecdotes found in large families. Frank Gilbreth, Sr., was a pioneer in the field of motion study, and often used his family as guinea pigs (with amusing and sometimes embarrassing results). He resisted popular culture,railing against his daughters' desires for bobbed hair and cosmetics."

Webb (Titanic) and Loy (The Thin Man) star in this comedic masterpiece.

These two had chemistry and they were so funny.

 It is so funny especially if you are familiar with the culture of the 40s and 50s.

Remade in 2003 starring the equally funny Steve Martin (Roxanne) and Bonnie Hunt (Cars). Difference is - Martin is a coach.

It's got more slapstick, too. All in all, I say: SEE IT though it was a good remake.

In 05, the sequel came out - same cast except for the oldest daughter and boyfriend were switched.

It takes place during a family vacation. Instead of the movies being about changing times,

they are about making people laugh.

All in all, I say: SKIP IT - there is a 3rd one coming out - not sure I will bother.
